Drumane ({{Irish derived place name|Droim Éan, meaning 'Ridge of the Birds'}}) is a townland in the civil parish of Templeport, County Cavan, Ireland. It lies in the Roman Catholic parish of Templeport and barony of Tullyhaw. GeographyDrumane is bounded on the north by Mullanacre Lower townland in Tomregan parish, on the west by Bofealan townland, on the south by Killynaff and Lecharrownahone townlands and on the east by Carrowmore, County Cavan townland in Tomregan parish. Its chief geographical features are the Crooked River (Ireland), a small wood and a gravel pit. Dromane is traversed by a minor road and rural lanes. The townland covers 147 statute acres. HistoryThe 1609 Baronial Map depicts the townland as Drommeane.[1][2] The 1652 Commonwealth Survey spells the name as Dromeane. The 1665 Down Survey map depicts it as Dromane.[3] William Petty's 1685 map depicts it as Dromean. In the Plantation of Ulster by grant dated 4 June 1611, along with other lands, King James VI and I granted one poll of Dromeane to Donill Backagh McShane O'Reyly. He was the nephew of the O'Reilly Clan chief, Aodh Connallach mac Maolmhordha who ruled from 1565–1583. By grant dated 29 April 1611, the king granted one poll in Dromene Eightragh ({{Irish derived place name|Droim Éan Íochtarach, meaning 'The Lower Ridge of the Birds'}}) to Hugh McManus Oge Magauran, gentleman. The O'Reillys later sold the land to Walter Talbot of Ballyconnell who died on 26 June 1625. His son James Talbot succeeded to the Ballyconnell estate aged just 10 years. An Inquisition held in Cavan on 20 September 1630 found that James Talbot was seized of one poll of Dromyne, along with other lands.[4] In 1635 James Talbot married Helen Calvert, the daughter of George Calvert, 1st Baron Baltimore of Maryland, USA. In the Cromwellian Act for the Settlement of Ireland 1652, James Talbot's estate was confiscated because he was a Catholic and he was granted an estate in 1655 at Castle Rubey, County Roscommon instead. He died in 1687. Talbot's land in Drumane was distributed as follows- In the Hearth Money Rolls of 1662 there were three people paying the Hearth Tax in Dromene- Phillip O Relly, Patricke O Relly and Edmond McKernan. The 1652 Commonwealth Survey lists the proprietor as being Lieutenant John Blackforde and the tenant as Gilleesaog O'Rely, they also appear as proprietor and tenant for several other Templeport townlands in the same survey. John Blachford was born in 1598 in Ashmore, Dorset, England, the son of Richard and Frances Blachford. He became a merchant in Dorchester, Dorset but fled to France in 1633 when facing a warrant from the Exchequer for not paying customs. He married Mary Renald from Devon and died at Lissanover, County Cavan in 1661 and was buried at St. Orvins in Dublin despite wishing to be buried back in Dorchester. His will was published on 9 January 1665 leaving his son John Blachford as his sole heir. An Inquisition held in Cavan on 21 May 1667 found that his widow Mary Blachford and his heir John were seized of, inter alia, the land of Dromeane alias Dromeightragh. He had sons John, Thomas, Ambrose and William (who became a Major) and daughters Mary and Frances. Major William Blachford was born in 1658 and died at Lissanover on 28 March 1727. The Blachford family gravestones in Templeport Church read as follows- This monument was erected by MAJOR WILLIAM / BLASHFORD of Lisnover in 1721 to the memory of / his father, JOHN BLASHFORD, late of the same Esqr. but / from Dorchester in Dorsetshire, the place of his / nativity, who in his lifetime chose this for a burying / place, for himself and family, but died in Dublin / was buried in St. Orvins Church but his wife, MARY / RENALD of a Devonsheire family is buried here / as also three sons and two daughters, viz JOHN / AMBROSE AND THOMAS; MARY AND FRANCES / Here likewise lies buried two wives of MAJOR WILLIAM BLASHFORD, son to the said JOHN BLASHFORD viz / MARY MAGHEE of an ancient Family in Lincolnsheire.

A deed dated 10 May 1744 spells the name as Dromean.[5] The 1790 Cavan Carvaghs list spells the name as Dromeone.[6] The Tithe Applotment Books for 1827 list eleven tithepayers in the townland.[7] In 1841 the population of the townland was 63, being 29 males and 34 females. There were nine houses in the townland, all of which were inhabited.[8] In 1851 the population of the townland was 30, being 16 males and 14 females, the reduction being due to the Great Famine (Ireland).
